Swami Satchidananda, the head of Sivagiri Mutt, emphasized that **Sanatana Dharma** is universal and not confined to Hinduism alone. He referred to Sree Narayana Guru’s proclamation of “One caste, One religion, One god” as an embodiment of Sanatana Dharma. Swami Satchidananda also highlighted that Sanatana Dharma existed before the emergence of religions like Christianity and Islam, and it is the culture of Bharatham. He stressed the need to eradicate evil practices like casteism that have distorted the true essence of Sanatana Dharma.
